Profile For Dolan S.

CFI like many companies today have automatic fleets. You would most likely need a waiver of some sort for your medical. As long as you could get in and out of the truck and trailer, you should be able to get hired. Best of luck to you.

Thanks Big Scott

Hey Pegleg, I am LBK amputee I am trying to get a CDL so if you have achieved getting one any advise would be eppreciated! Thanks Dolan

So, what happened man? I am in a similar boat but I am a BK amputee and can drive a manual. I go into the DMV 8/12/19 for my road and skills test for my CDL. The doctor that did the physical for my medical card did not seem to worry about my amputation. Very strange indeed. I would really like to hear the outcome for you and the process. I don't think I need the SPE if I'm driving fuel or rock or cement locally. I live in So. California so all those commodities are extracted here and don't cross state lines. However, I want to go OTR. I was a driver for Schneider 2002 - 2004 until I too was in an accident. I hope your still around and haunting this formum. It's been a real tough go to get any information from anyone other than I need an SPE. Thanks in advance

Is it possible being an ak amputee to drive a big truck again. I drove for CFI in 2005-2007. Was hit by an 18 wheeler in 2008 causing a leg amputation. Are their regulations against this.

Will I be able to get hired again after I acquire my CDL license again.

Forrest, I am a left leg below knee amputee. I am trying to get a CDL Ive never had one so I was wondering how you mad out? If you are driving now could you give me some advice on how to go about it? Hope your doing well brother! Dolan

Thank you so much! That is great to hear. I'm so excited and ready to get back on the road. Haven't decided yet on a company but I will soon. Will need to go with an automatic truck due to my amputation. But I am ready to hit the road again.

Thanks Rob.T

Is anyone out there driving with LBK prosthetic? How did you go about SPEs? Thanks
